A reading guide to comics and books

In the beginning of this blog, I was motivated by doing long and comprehensive reading guide, especially for comics. It’s time to get back at it with a big chunk of Spider-Man recent history.

Spider-Man by Dan Slott, The Longest run

Dan Slott took over in 2010. Before that, he was one of the multiple writers who tried to put Peter Parker back on his feet following the disastrous One More Day storyline.

Dan Slott knows Spider-Man’s history and how to use it. He used it to redefine old enemies, to develop new ones and to take the story where it never went before. This is a comprehensive reading order, following mostly TPB editions, not issues on issues.

Spider-Man by Dan Slott Reading Order:

I. Big Time

As I was saying, Dan Slott started to work on the Amazing Spider-Man prior to the official beginning of his run as the main writer on the series. But Big Time is where to start.

Renew Your Vows – This story doesn’t take place in the regular Marvel Universe, but in a parallel one where Peter is still married to MJ and they have a kid. You know, it’s what the ASM could have been if Marvel didn’t push the reset button so often. Dan Slott only wrote the first miniseries (collects Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows 1–5, Spider-Verse #2)

V. Marvel Legacy

After the event of the Secret Empire crossover, Pete’s life is not the same, it’s kind of a new beginning again. Also, it’s the last arc written by Dan Slott.
